  • 본 연구는 특정 지역간 혹은 동일지역내의 기간별 익사관리 효율성을 비교하기 위한 익사관리지수 개발을 목적으로 한다. 세계적으로 익사관리의 효율성을 평가하거나 익사현황의 심각성을 가늠하는 수단으로 인구 10만명당 익사자수를 사용하고 있다. 그러나 지역별, 시기별로 사람들이 익사가 발생할 수 있는 환경에 노출되는 확률은 다르다. 그렇기 때문에 실제 익사가능환경에 노출된 인구비율이 반영된 새로운 지표를 개발하였다. 익사관리지수 개발을 위하여 익사 유발요인들을 파악하고, 사람들이 잠재적으로 익사할 수 있는 상황에 노출되는 비율을 측정할 수 있는 설문지를 제작하였다. 설문결과 한국과 호주의 익사환경 노출 인구 백분율은 한국 11%와 호주 84%로 큰 차이를 보였다. 2008년 기준으로 한국과 호주의 인구 10만명당 익사자수는 1.7명과 1.4명으로 유사하지만, 익사관리지수는 한국 15.5와 호주 1.67로 9배 이상 차이를 보였다. 익사관리 지수는 익사의 심각성을 가늠하고, 익사관리의 효율성 비교를 위한 유용한 지표이다.

  • 이 연구는 호주와 핀란드를 중심으로 중등단계 직업교육에서의 학점제를 비교분석하고, 이를 통해 우리나라 중등단계 직업교육에서의 시사점을 도출하는데 목적이 있었다. 이를 위해, 호주와 핀란드의 중등단계 직업교육 체제와 교육과정 편성, 운영, 평가 및 연계를 검토하고 비교하였다. 호주와 핀란드는 중등단계 직업교육 체제 측면에서 서로 다른 특징을 보이는데, 호주는 지방분권적 체제 하에서 종합고등학교 내에서 운영되는 직업교육 프로그램을 중심으로 운영되는 반면, 핀란드는 중앙집권적 체제로 일반교육과 구분되는 별도의 직업교육 기관에서 직업교육을 제공하고 있다. 그러나 교육과정의 편성과 운영 측면에서는 두 국가 모두 학점제에 기반하고 있으며, 무학년제를 채택하고, 학생의 교과 선택권을 보장하고 있다. 이러한 연구 결과를 바탕으로, 최근 관심이 높아지고 있는 중등단계 직업교육 학점제 도입과 관련하여, 정책적·학문적 시사점을 제언하였다.

  • 최근 우리나라에서도 2030 국가 온실가스 감축목표를 달성하기 위한 이산화탄소 지중저장 기술이 큰 주목을 받고 있으나, 국내 대규모 CCS 사업이 지연되면서 우리나라의 이산화탄소를 해외 저장소에 저장하는 국외감축 사업이 주목을 받고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 호주 깁스랜드 분지에서 추진 중인 CarbonNet 프로젝트의 개발 현황을 조사하여 단기적으로는 국내감축을 위한 대규모 저장소 탐사, 장기적으로는 국외감축 부지 정보 축적을 위한 보조자료로 활용하고자 한다. 먼저 호주의 퇴적분지와 호주에서 추진 중인 CCS 사업을 간략히 소개하고, 대규모 CCS 사업이 추진 중인 깁스랜드 분지의 지질학적 형성과정을 분석한다. 이후 CarbonNet 프로젝트의 부지 선정 과정을 정리하고, 선정된 펠리컨 부지의 CCS 적합성을 논의하고자 한다.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the antimicrobial effects of Australia propolis against cariogenic and periodontopathic bacteria. Antimicrobial activity was determined by evaluating the minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC). Cell cytotoxicity of propolis extract on normal human gingival fibroblast (HGF-1) cells was observed using the methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium bromide assay. The data indicated that, with the exception of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (KCOM 1306), the MBC values of the propolis strains were 0.25-1% without HGF-1 cell cytotoxicity. These results suggest that propolis can be used to develop oral hygiene products for the prevention of oral infectious disease.

  • One of the major aims in studying plant viruses is to minimise the development of symptoms in infected plants. With the advent of in vitro transcript mediated research on plant viruses, substantial progress has been made. This article describes the biology of a plant specific RNA virus, Johnsongrass mosaic virus (JGMV), important to Australian sorghum and corn agriculture and, in particular, at a molecular level which of the RNA sequences in its genome that make it possible for the virus to move from cell to cell, and eventually spread systemically throughout the entire plant. The JGMV has caused considerable yield losses in maize and sorghum over a number of years in Australia. Incidents where 100% of the crop has been infected are on record. The use of this virus is convenient under laboratory conditions because it can be readily transmitted by mechanical inoculation with infected leaf sap, which obviates the need for maintaining aphid colonies. The JGMV is a single stranded positive sense RNA virus.

  • The purpose of this study is to compare accreditation criteria of environmentally-friendly hospitals in the USA, UK and Australia and find out the implications for Korean hospitals. The comparison was made in terms of 11 categories : sustainable site, water efficiency, energy & atmosphere, transportation, indoor environmental quality, health, material & resources, management, waste, innovation, and regional priority. Literature review of the study revealed that most of the environmentally-friendly hospitals have experienced such positive effects as cost saving, health promotion of patients & employees and good reputation etc. The study result implies that the following factors are so critical to settle environmentally-friendly hospitals in Korea: 1) CEO's interest & support, 2) education for employees, 3) efficient renovation of existing facility and 4) data accumulation on the effectiveness of environmentally- friendly hospitals by scientific methods.

  • The purpose of this research is to investigate young consumer motivation in regards to shopping mall. Young adults are an emerging age group that has economic autonomy and power of making independent decisions. In addition, this young segment providing an interesting challenges and opportunities for marketing professionals. Therefore, it is pertinent to analyse their shopping motivations, so that the marketers can understand and influence the consumption behaviour of this specific group. A survey using self-administered questionnaire was conducted to assess the mall-directed shopping habits and shopping orientations. A total of 164 usable surveys were obtained. In addition of exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling was applied to prove the hypotheses. We have found that young Australian shoppers were motivated to visit malls primarily by the role enactment and exploration dimensions. They were the strongest motivators which explaining why young Australian consumers patronize malls. Young consumers of Australia enjoyed the mall environment, exploring new things, socializing with friends, comparing prices and the variety of products and services offered. The results of our study have several implications that should be of benefit to the retailing industry and mall management. Developers of malls must develop their mall more than simply a place for buying products. As such, mall management should make sure that their mall atmospherics offer a mall environment that is pleasing to multiple senses, to ensure it is conducive for shoppers to stay and spend more of their time and money. Mall management must execute strategies to maintain their attraction to younger consumers, perhaps by including stores that are futuristic and offer the most advanced styles or technologies, and appeal to somewhat older adults by offering the tenant, entertainment, and experience mix they will prefer. It is recommended that future research utilize random sampling methods to ensure the generalizability of results.

  • NCEP reanalysis data were analyzed in order to provide distribution of global wind resource and wind speed in the surface layer for the years 2000-2009. Wind speed at 10 m above ground level (AGL) was converted to wind speed at 80 m above the ground level using the power law. The global average 80 m wind speed shows a maximum value of $13ms^{-1}$ at the storm track region. High wind speed over the land exists in Tibet, Mongolia, Central North America, South Africa, Australia, and Argentina. Wind speed over the ocean increased with a large value in the South China Sea, Southeast Asia, East Sea of the Korea. Sea surface wind in Western Europe and Scandinavia are suitable for wind farm with a value of $7-8ms^{-1}$. Areas with great potential for wind farm are also found in Eastern and Western coastal region of North America. Sea surface wind in Southern Hemisphere shows larger values in the high latitude of South America, South Africa and Australia. The distribution of low-resolution reanalysis data represents general potential areas for wind power and can be used to provide information for high-resolution wind resource mapping.
